KILLED DAY TWELVE - Ember tried to save him from the pirates, but could not.
Full Name: Tommy Mernon From (Hometown): Toronto, Canada Ethnicity: Canadian Gender: Male Traits (Appearance): Tall, muscular, brown hair, blue eyes Reason for coming on the plane: He was going on vacation with his friends but he missed the plane they were on so he had to go on this one Brief History (Criminal record, past): Has been arrested as a teenager for shoplifting and beating someone up but got bailed out each time because his family is rich Anything else: He spent years doing wrestling so he is a skilled fighter. He's studying to be a lawyer.
DAY ONE
I wake up confused. Where was I? Looking around I see myself surrounded by trees. I get up and take my phone out of my pocket. No one else on the plane was around as far as I could see. I realize that my phone isn't working. There was no reception here. I get up and start pacing back and forth trying to calm down. Suddenly I feel someone watching me.
"Who's there?" I ask pulling out a knife from my pocket.
Ever since what happened to me back at home I carried one around. It wasn't like I couldn't defend myself.
"Who are you?" a man wearing a mask says coming out from behind one of the trees.
"I'm Tommy. My plane crashed here. Can you please help me?"
"Come with me" the man says gesturing for me to follow him.
I follow him but I keep my knife in hand. He stops at a cave and looks around making sure that no one is watching. Then he pushes aside the vines covering it and runs inside. I hesitate but eventually go in after him. There wasn't much in here. There was a radio that looked broken and since there was no reception I doubt it would work anyways.
"Where is this place?" I ask him standing a good distance away from him.
"You don't want to know" he tells me with a scowl on his face.
"I do! I need to see my family they're waiting for me." I say raising my voice. He responds by doing the same.
"Your family? I hope you got to say goodbye the last time you saw them because you never will again. There is no way off this island I've been here for years." he says walking around the cave and getting out a sword.
He trys to hand it to me and says "That knife will not protect you from the dangers on this island. I hope you know how to use this."
"How do you know i'm not one of those dangers?" I ask him not taking the weapon.
"Just trust me" he says pushing the weapon towards me.
"I don't trust anyone" I say and walk out of the cave. I would find a way off this island on my own.
DAY TWO
I walk out of the cave and start going towards a body of water. I hadn't even noticed how thirsty I was until now. I cup some in my hands and drink it cringing at the taste. I never trusted people who said all water tasted the same because I'd definitely tasted water better than this. As a matter of fact I never really trusted anyone. That was going to have to change if I wanted to get off this island. As much as I wanted to do it on my own I knew deep down that I couldn't. If there really were dangers on this island like the masked man had told me I would need more than my little pocket knife to protect me. I get up and start walking around trying to find something to eat.There are lots of plants and I know what most of them are. I silently thank my mother in my head for making me take that stupid class about survival when I was younger. I get some edible ones and eat them as I continue to walk. It was getting dark out and I needed to find some sort of shelter to stay in till morning. There had to be more caves like the one the man had taken me in somewhere. After what feels like hours I find one and sigh in relief. I needed some rest. Tomorrow I'm going to try to find someone and judging by the fact that I haven't seen anyone yet that will be difficult. I step into the cave and sit down closing my eyes for a second but then I tense up. Someone was already in here.
"Who are you?" I ask standing up. He doesn't respond so I ask again, louder this time.
A man with a low, deep voice responds saying "You come into my cave and demand to know who I am? That's not the way it works boy. No need for you to know anyways. It's not like I'm letting you get out of here alive."
The dangers the masked man had told me about earlier, this man was one of them. Before I can even think of running he grabs my head and smashes against the wall knocking me out. The last thought I have is getting back to my family.
DAY THREE
I wake up to the sound of people talking. I keep my eyes closed not wanting them to know I was up yet.
"What are we going to do with him? Can he be trusted?" I hear a woman say.
"We have to wait for him to wake up. He might be dangerous."
That was the voice of the man who had knocked me out.
"I'm not dangerous" I say opening my eyes.
"Who are you?" the woman asks sitting down next to me.
"I'm Tommy. I was on a plane to see my family and then it crashed here. I don't even know where I am. Please don't kill me."
The man and woman look at each other and nod.
"I am Alice and this is Derek. You're on an island right now. Was anyone else on the plane with you?"
I nod and tell them how my plan was to stop here and get some rest before I went looking for them tomorrow.
"Getting off of this island will be hard. There is no cellphone service and people rarely come here." Derek tells me.
"I will find a way to leave. I just need you guys to trust me. It would be nice if you started doing that by untying my hands."
Alice looks over at Derek and he nods his head. I guess he was in charge in here.
She unties my hand and says "If you're getting off this island, we're coming with you. We've been stuck here for years. We have family at home too."
I stretch out my hands and lean my head against the wall sighing.
"You either let us come with you or we kill you now." Derek says.
"It's a deal." I say closing my eyes.
I would find a way to ditch them eventually, but what I really needed to do right now was get some sleep.
DAY FOUR
When I wake up again I see that Alice and Derek are already up. I rub my eyes and stand up stretching. I was determined to find where everyone was. After getting some berries that I found, I tell Alice and Derek that I'm ready to go. None of us say much as we walk. I look around and all I see are trees. Its starting to get dark and my eyes are giving out. I'm about to tell Alice and Derek to take a quick break until I see pieces of a plane. Alice looks at me with hopeful eyes.
"Do you think anyone could be there?" she asks quietly.
"Let's check" I say mentally crossing my fingers.
As we approach the beach, we see many people. They all had food, water, and even medical supplies.
I walk up to a random guy and ask him where I can get some water. Once he tells me I get some and quickly drink all of it.
"So this is where everyone is camping out?" Derek asks me.
"I guess so" I say sitting down.
Alice and Derek sit down next to me and fall asleep. I don't blame them, we walked a lot today. I look around and overhear people talking about building huts. I would ask to join in on that tomorrow. I get a second bottle of water and this time drink slowly making sure to save it as I watch the sun go down. Maybe we could all actually get off this island.
DAY FIVE
After the sun went down everyone fell asleep. I was tired, but I just couldn't sleep. The excitement of getting to go home was too much. I get up and start walking around examining parts of the plane. I wonder what caused us to crash. As I'm about to walk back to Alice and Derek who I did not manage to ditch I hear footsteps behind me.
"Who's there?" I ask turning around trying to find someone in the dark.
"Tommy...is that you?" I hear a familiar voice say.
"Grace? No it can't be."
"Yeah, Tommy. It's me!" she says running to me and throwing her arms around me.
I couldn't believe it.
"They said you died in that fire. How are you here? How did I not see you on the plane?"
She laughs that laugh that I fell in love with years ago and steps away from me.
"Well, you can obviously see how much my appearance has changed. It's complicated Tommy. Let's get some sleep now, okay? I'll explain in the morning."
I let her take my hand and lead me to where she was camping out. She quickly falls asleep, holding me tightly. All I can do is wonder how this happened.
DAY SIX
I stayed up all night thinking about how she was here right now. She died in that fire...I was certain of it. There was no way that she made it out. I put my hand to my head and massage my temples to soothe my headache. I'm about to get up to finally talk on someone who was on the plane until I hear her soft voice say my name.
"Tommy?"
"What?" I say snapping without meaning to.
She sighs. "You're mad...just let me explain. Please?"
I nod and look at her waiting to hear what story she could come up with.
"The fire that happened was planned. I was in lots of trouble with the cops... they were going to send me to jail. Remember when we shoplifted that necklace?"
"Of course I remember. Someone shot the store owner because he saw us."
"Yes. That someone was me. My father couldn't bear to see me sent to jail so he decided to fake my death. I know its terrible and that you might hate me for it. Just try to understand Tommy."
"You could have told me. I have spent these past five years missing you and you've been alive this whole time?" I say getting up and raising my voice which results in looks from people around us.
"I couldn't. It would be too danger-"
"No. Don't talk to me or come after me" I say cutting her off and leaving.
I go up to a guy who's talking about giving the tour of the huts they had built and ask if I can join.
"Of course you can join! I don't know if you heard, but our group plans on helping each other survive and thrive until this is all over. What's your name?"
I introduce myself and we start walking around. The huts were well built and would provide good enough shelter until we got off this island. If we ever do.
DAY SEVEN
The guy who introduced himself as Ryan was a really nice guy. We had a long talk about muscles and all the hot ladies as he showed me around. What he was doing to help was really cool. Ever since I got to this part of the beach I hadn't seen Alice or Derek and I hoped it stayed that way. They weren't the nicest people. While Ryan and I were walking around we came across this guy who was carrying a girl. They were both bleeding so I excused myself. I couldn't handle seeing others get hurt...I'd rather have it be me. Right now all I was trying to do was distract myself from thinking of Grace. Could I even believe what she told me? Whenever we were kids and got in trouble she would be the one to make up a great story about why we did what we did. Trusting people isn't something i'm good at anyways. Everyone considers it as a bad thing but if you don't trust people you won't have expectations which means no one can let you down. I was deep in thought when suddenly the doctor- Beatrice Black came running into the hut I was in.
"A girl has been hurt badly and the only name she's saying repeatably is yours! You have to come help." she says with concern on her face.
What if it was Grace? I can't leave her alone if she needs me.
"Okay. Take me to her." I say to the doctor following out of the hut.
She takes me to where Grace was before I left her and I gasp when I see her backing away. She was screaming in pain.
"What do I do?' I ask trying to calm down.
"Just hold her hand and let her know that you're here until I help her."
I nod and take both of her hands in mine as I sing our song for her. I was not going to lose her again.
DAY EIGHT
I couldn't believe this was happening. I know I told her to leave me alone but that was only to take time to think about eveything. Now she's going to die thinking that I hate her. No don't think like that I think as I gently squeeze her hands. The doctor puts Grace to sleep and excuses herself. I don't know what I would do if she wasn't here. I put Graces head in my lap and close my eyes. I had to talk to Ryan tomorrow to see if she could stay in one of the huts until she got better. It had been a long day and before I know it I drift off into a peaceful sleep.
DAY NINE
When I wake up I see that Grace is already up.
"Hey how are you feeling?" I ask her in a soft voice.
"I'm fine." she replies avoiding my gaze.
"You're mad" I say with a sigh.
"No, I'm not. I just don't understand why you're here after what happened."
"I still care" I tell her gently turning her head towards me.
"You do?"
"Of course I do. I will never stop caring about you. I never stopped loving you."
When I say that she gives me a confused look and pulls away.
"I don't believe you."
I turn her head again, but this time I connect our lips. I missed kissing her. I missed her. After a few minutes we both pull away to catch our breath and just stare at each other. Her eyes were beautiful. You could spend eternity looking into them and it still wouldn't be enough time to understand their beauty.
"Do you think we can get off of this island? Go home and have the life we would always talk about when we were kids?" she asks me with a little laugh.
"I know we will but the life we planned out was for us to be together...does that mean you love me again?"
"I never stopped" she says pulling me in for another kiss.
I smile and kiss back but I feel like shit on the inside. Getting off this island is highly unlikely. It's been nine days already. Someone should have found out and came to look for us. In all honestly I didn't care where I was. I could stay on this island forever if it meant being with Grace.
DAY TEN
We ended up falling asleep in each other's arms. Well, more like she fell asleep while I stared at her. I wondered where she had been hiding for all those years and how she managed to do it. I was still angry about it. I close my eyes to sleep when I hear a noise. I immediately open them and squint my eyes, trying to see in the dark. When Grace fell asleep I had moved us down the beach so we could have a little bit of privacy until morning.
"Who's there?" I ask when I hear the noise again.
After I get no response I close my eyes and try to sleep again. Maybe I was imagining things. Then I hear it again. I open my eyes and sit up and ask again.
"Who's there? Answer."
"You thought you could just abandon us?" I hear Derek's voice say.
Before I can scream for help he has his hand over my mouth and knocks me out.
DAY ELEVEN
I open my eyes and look around frantically. Where was Grace?
"Don't worry. Alice is with Grace on the beach" Derek says as if he knew what I was thinking.
"What do you want from me?" I ask sternly.
"Why did you just leave us? We were supposed to leave this island together."
"Well, I don't know if you've noticed but i'm still here."
I stand up and start walking towards the beach. Derek runs after me and grabs my arms.
"You will not leave me again. Do you understand?"
I push him away, punching him in the eye.
"You will not tell me what to do. Do you understand?"
He starts to say something but he sees the look in my eyes and just nods. I guess you could say I was pretty scary when I got mad.He was crazy if he honestly thought we could get off this island. I wouldn't be surprised if we all died here. I see Grace and run up to her hugging her tightly.
I look at Alice with a glare.
"She didn't hurt you, right?"
"No. I'm fine."
"Good."
I put my hand on her face and kiss her. After a while Alice clears her throat and I pull away laughing.
"We have a plan" she tells me.
"A plan?"
"Yes. A way to finally leave this island."
"Tell me" I say holding on to Graces hand.
DAY 12
I listened to their plan and wondered whether or not it would work. But as I wondered, I heard a gun shot. I went to it and saw a man looking over a dead woman. I followed the man back to a camp and saw him go into a hut. I climbed up into a tree, hoping to get this man alone. I fell asleep and when I woke up, I was surrounded by a bunch of pirates.
Hey your characters are mentioned in my day 13 -Ember ps sorry!
DAY 13
I was dead. I could feel myself drifting. I wondered where I was going. Did Heaven and Hell really exist? Wouldn't I be there by now if they did? I feel a force push against me and I struggle to open my eyes. When I finally do I see myself on the island. This is where I was before I died. I looked around trying to find my body but it wasnt there. My soul was stuck on the island.
DAY 14
I wondered if I could ever get to my body. I didn't even know where it was. Maybe being stuck wouldn't be that bad. I could look after Grace until she found a way off the island. Would she be okay without me? Of course she would. She faked her death and didn't see me for years..she would be fine. I don't need to watch over her. I can do whatever I want.

"I don't trust anyone" I say and walk out of the cave. I would find a way off this island on my own.

"Who's there? Answer."
"You thought you could just abandon us?" I hear Derek's voice say.
Before I can scream for help he has his hand over my mouth and knocks me out.
DAY ELEVEN
I open my eyes and look around frantically. Where was Grace?"Don't worry. Alice is with Grace on the beach" Derek says as if he knew what I was thinking.
"What do you want from me?" I ask sternly.
"Why did you just leave us? We were supposed to leave this island together."
"Well, I don't know if you've noticed but i'm still here."
I stand up and start walking towards the beach. Derek runs after me and grabs my arms.
"You will not leave me again. Do you understand?"
I push him away, punching him in the eye.
"You will not tell me what to do. Do you understand?"
He starts to say something but he sees the look in my eyes and just nods. I guess you could say I was pretty scary when I got mad.He was crazy if he honestly thought we could get off this island. I wouldn't be surprised if we all died here. I see Grace and run up to her hugging her tightly.
I look at Alice with a glare.
"She didn't hurt you, right?"
"No. I'm fine."
"Good."
I put my hand on her face and kiss her. After a while Alice clears her throat and I pull away laughing.
"We have a plan" she tells me.
"A plan?"
"Yes. A way to finally leave this island."
"Tell me" I say holding on to Graces hand.
DAY 12
I listened to their plan and wondered whether or not it would work. But as I wondered, I heard a gun shot. I went to it and saw a man looking over a dead woman. I followed the man back to a camp and saw him go into a hut. I climbed up into a tree, hoping to get this man alone. I fell asleep and when I woke up, I was surrounded by a bunch of pirates.Hey your characters are mentioned in my day 13 -Ember ps sorry!
DAY 13
I was dead. I could feel myself drifting. I wondered where I was going. Did Heaven and Hell really exist? Wouldn't I be there by now if they did? I feel a force push against me and I struggle to open my eyes. When I finally do I see myself on the island. This is where I was before I died. I looked around trying to find my body but it wasnt there. My soul was stuck on the island.DAY 14
I wondered if I could ever get to my body. I didn't even know where it was. Maybe being stuck wouldn't be that bad. I could look after Grace until she found a way off the island. Would she be okay without me? Of course she would. She faked her death and didn't see me for years..she would be fine. I don't need to watch over her. I can do whatever I want.DAY 15
I start walking around and wonder how
